Conductive hydrogels (CHs) are widely applied in soft electronic devices. However, the
existing CHs excluded self-adhesion and high sensitivity at lower strains, hardly fulfilling the …

Finely dispersed Pd nanoparticles (PdNPs) anchored to CoAl layered double hydroxide
nanowalls (LDH-NWs) have been fabricated via a facile in situ redox reaction between the …

Recent advances in the development of stable dispersions of nanophase metal particles
have allowed the direct fabrication of metal patterns (eg, printed circuits, RFID tags, touch …

Porous ternary Pd–Co–P alloy network nanostructures were synthesized by reducing
K2PdCl4/K3Co (CN) 6 cyanogel with a mixture of NaH2PO2 and NaBH4 at room …

Microstructures in nature are ultrafine and ordered in biological roles, which have attracted
material scientists. Spirulina forms three-dimensional helical microstructure, one of …

Biomimetic hybrid metal-dome− polymer-spike surfaces having controllable water droplet
adhesion on superhydrophobic surfaces are prepared by self-organization, electroless …

Silver microcoil is fabricated through a biotemplating process combined with electroless
plating. Spiral vessels in Lotus root are employed as a biotemplate because of their left …

Establishing the adhesion between soft yet wet materials remains challenging due to the
interfacial water, the dilution of polymer strands, and the lubrication of the interface. Herein …

We demonstrate a simple route to depositing nickel layer patterns using photocross-linked
polymer thin films containing palladium catalysts, which can be used as adhesive interlayers …
